I ran it under sh -x and:
+ default_format='# Start watchdog at boot time? 0 or 1
run_watchdog=%s
#
# Specify additional watchdog options here (see manpage).
'
+ db_get watchdog/run
+ _db_cmd 'GET watchdog/run'
+ printf '%s\n' 'GET watchdog/run'
+ IFS='
'
+ read -r _db_internal_line
+ RET=true
+ case ${_db_internal_line%%[ ]*} in
+ return 0
+ case $RET in
+ run_watchdog=1
+ '[' -f /etc/default/watchdog ']'
+ printf '# Start watchdog at boot time? 0 or 1
run_watchdog=%s
#
# Specify additional watchdog options here (see manpage).
' '.*'
+ grep -vxf - /etc/default/watchdog
